      Hi
      This log shows that there is an exchange of DPD packets between two hosts, and that you visited the page
      /status/ipsec .

      there is no more information here

          @Alanesi said in StrongSwan user authentication failed on Android:

          ignore candidate 'con-mobile' without matching IKE proposal

          Check the phase-1 settings on both sides of the tunnel . If the Windows client is working perfectly , it is possible that an error occurred in the Android client settings.

          P.S. I would recommend selecting the CA certificate manually in the client settings

            I did the manual selection for the CA. I'll see what else I can change.

                  Then you need to check the settings of the Android client
                  There may be an error in the username/password field

                              okay, on the android part there is not much more to todo.
                              Normally this is the easy part.

                              Now, I think it's time for pictures from your pfsense and android. but don't forget to deleted the sensitive Infos.

                                      Phase 1:
                                      Switch to:
                                      AES / 256 bits / SHA256 / 14 (2048 bit)
                                      and
                                      Enable MOBIKE

                                      Android:
                                      Don't forget the advanced settings (see above).

                                        THAT'S GREAT IT WORKED.
                                        I accualy added AES / 256 bits / SHA256 / 14 (2048 bit) to the current one.

                                        Thanks @Alitai 🎖
